The Opportunity:

Are you looking to transform the way a user interacts with applications and cloud services? You know that a good system is more than just the code, infrastructure, and a nice-looking interface—it’s the way it addresses a user’s needs.

Your experience with information architecture, interface design, and product implementation and development will help you advocate for the prioritizations of design-centered changes, refinements, and improvements while keeping the end-user at the center of your work.
